I have a question though: what setting(s) does a digital camera have to be set on so that when i take a picture of a figure up close i'm not actually having to use the zoom function per se to get the desired effect but instead i'd achieving the close-up type pics like the ones above? There are different settings on my camera but i thought i'd ask anyway and see what other people are using/doing.

I hope that makes sense?

Really depends on what camera you have.
You should have a macro setting - a picture of a flower - I suggest experimenting with that.

If you have a DSLR then put the objective to manual zoom and find it yourself, works way better - but you have to have a steady hold on the camera - or a tripod or something similar.

In my canon, this is what a 'younger' King Hisss looked like during the Grayskull era before he was defeated and vanished from Eternia by King Grayskull and He-Ro.

At first, I was a little disappointed by King Hsss when I opened him as I encountered several articulation flaws such as restricted thigh movement and shoulder obstruction caused by his infamous reversed shoulders. Thankfully I was able to correct the reversed shoulders and this allowed the figure to be much more playable and aesthetically pleasing which considerably improved my opinion of the figure. I now like him very much and looks very elegant in standing poses despite the restricted leg movement.

I took these pictures to help sell the Crystal Castle I have by showing that the MOTUC figures can fit (as per request by Madrage).
But thought you guys might like to see them too since they looks pretty cool!

Is that pose taken from Revenge of the Nerds when the Lambdas have a camera in Betty's room?

I dont know if this is exactly where I should be posting this, I have never posted a picture. This is the first Evil Giant for He-Man to fight and it is not Megator. I found this guy at WalMart and had to get it. Its called the Savage Frost Giant. He stands about 12"-13" tall.
